Pantomime: Everywhere It's Christmas

verywhere it's Christmas

Everywhere it's song

London, Paris, Rome and New York

Tokoy, Hong Kong

Oh everywhere it's Christmas

And I'm off to join the cheer!

Everywhere it's Christmas

At the end of every year!

Oh everywhere it's Christmas

At the end of every year!

I said that everywhere it's Christmas

At the end of every year!

One more time now!

Everywhere it's Christmas...



Orowainya, orowainya, orowainya, ooh

Endomainya, endomainya, endomainya, ooh



Our story opens in Corsica. On the Verandah is a bearded man in glasses conducting a small choir.



Orowainya, orowainya, orowainya...



Yohoo! Yodellaihetee! Yohoo!



Meanwhile, high in the Swiss Alps, two elderly Scotsmen munch on a rare cheese.



"Mm, wonderful stuff this, Agnes."



"Aye, it's wonderful stuff."



Hodellaihetee! Yodellaihetee!



I'm standing in the entrance to the main tent. Immediately behind me, the festivities have already begun.



"Tell me, are you enjoying the wine?"



"I am indeed your highness. It goes well with me."



"Yeah, very good, very good. Ha ha ha!"



"The king seems to be enjoying himself tonight!



"You might not have seen him on such good focus since the October Festival."



"Alright! Is there a doctor here? Is there a doctor around here? Did anybody see one?"



At the same time as this in the Captain's mess in board, the H.M.S. Tremendous, a toast is being proposed.



"To Her Majesty!"



"To Her Majesty!"



Ho ho ho ho ho ho ho ho ho!



Podgy the bear and Jasper were huddled around the unlit fire in the centre of the room.



"There are no more matches left, Podgy," said Jasper.



"Then buy some, Jasper, old friend," said Podgy.



"Make a list and afterwards we'll go to the shop and buy matches and buy candles and buns."



"There's no more paper to write on, Podgy."



"No need to worry, Jasper. You keep saying to yourself 'matches' and I'll keep saying 'candles' until we reach the shop. Then we won't need to write it down, we'll remember."



"Who'll remember the buns, Podgy?"



"We both will, Jasper... Matches."



"Candles."



"Matches."



"Candles."



"Matches."



"Candles."



"Matches."



"Candles."



"Matches."



"Candles."



In the long dark corridors of Felpin Mansions, a door slams.



And the shadowy firgure of Count Balder appears. The Count is the eccentric son of Baron Landsberg, the inventor of the rack. He speaks...



"Guten taen, meinen damen and herren. Welcome to Felpin Mansions. The Butler will show you to your rooms. Butler!"



"Yes, Sir!"



"Show the ladies and gentlemen to their rooms."



"Yes, Sir! Come this please."



"Come in."



"May I come in?"



"Come, come in, Count."



"May I?"



"Oh, yes, come in."



"Ah, thank you. I was wondering if you knew any of the songs from the good old days."



"Oh, my goodness, yes. Don't you worry on that score. I hear the Baron likes, uh, I hear the Baron likes the good old tunes."



"Yes, I do."



"So do I, Count. So do I."



"But they're all melodies, aren't they?"



"No, don't worry. I'll play this one. Do you like this one? Listen to this one."



Please don't bring your banjo bag

I know where it's been

I wasn't hardly gone a day

When it became the scene

Banjos, banjos all the time

I can't forget that tune

And if I ever see another banjo

I'm going out to buy a big balloon

And if I ever see another banjo

I'm going out to buy a big balloon

And if I ever see another banjo

I'm going out to buy a big balloon

And if I ever see another banjo

I'm going out to buy a big balloon

And if I ever see another banjo

I'm going out to buy a big balloon



Yes, everywhere it's Christmas.



Everywhere it's Christmas

Everywhere it's song

London, Paris, Rome and New York

Tokoy, Hong Kong

Oh everywhere it's Christmas

And I'm off to join the cheer!

Everywhere it's Christmas

At the end of every year!

Oh everywhere it's Christmas

At the end of every year!

I said that everywhere it's Christmas

At the end of every year!

One more time now!

Everywhere it's Christmas

At the end of every year



Ha ha ha, jolly good, ho ho, jolly good.

Crying, Waiting, Hoping (live at the BBC)

rying, waiting, hoping you'll come back

I just can't seem to get you off my mind

Crying, waiting, hoping you'll come back

You're the one I love, I think about you all the time



Crying, do do do do, tear keep a falling all night long

Waiting, do do do do, it seems so useless I know it's wrong

Keep a crying, waiting, hoping you'll come back

Maybe someday soon it'll change and you'll be mine



Crying, do do do do, tears keep a falling all night long

Waiting, do do do do, it seems so useless I know it's wrong

Keep a crying, waiting, hoping you'll come back

Maybe someday soon it'll change and you'll be mine

Crying, waiting, hoping

Thank you.

We'd like to carry on with a song that was

on an al... the album before last.

And It's called "Everbody's Trying To Be My Baby".]



Well they took some honey from a tree

Dressed it up and they called it me



Everybody's trying to be my baby

Everybody's trying to be my baby

Everybody's trying to be my baby, now



Well half past nine, half past four

Fifty women knocking on my door



Everybody's trying to be my baby

Everybody's trying to be my baby

Everybody's trying to be my baby, now



Went out last night, I didn't stay late

Fore I got home I had nineteen dates



Everybody's trying to be my baby

Everybody's trying to be my baby

Everybody's trying to be my baby, now



Went out last night, I didn't stay late

Fore I got home I had nineteen dates



Everybody's trying to be my baby

Everybody's trying to be my baby

Everybody's trying to be my baby, now



Well they took some honey from a tree

Dressed it up and they called it me



Everybody's trying to be my baby

Everybody's trying to be my baby

Everybody's trying to be my baby, now

Free As A Bird

ree as a bird

It's the next best thing to be

Free as a bird



Home, home and dry

Like a homing bird I'll fly

As a bird on wings



Whatever happened to

The life that we once knew?

Can we really live without each other?



Where did we lose the touch

That seemed to mean so much?

It always made me feel so...



Free as a bird

Like the next best thing to be

Free as a bird



Home, home and dry

Like a homing bird I'll fly

As a bird on wings



Whatever happened to

The life that we once knew?

Always made me feel so free



Ah...

Ah...

Ah...



Free as a bird

It's the next best thing to be

Free as a bird

Free as a bird

Free as a bird

Oooooo



Free...



[Turn out nice again, mother.]

Baby's In Black (live concert at Hollywood Bowl)

We like to do another number, cos it's what we're here for.

While Paul fiddles with his amplifier.

I hope you can hear me, I'd be awfully dosappointed if you couldn't.

We'd like to do another number from one of our LPs, albums, long players, records...

Oh yeah.

It's a slow number and it's a waltz for all of you over 10.

Some people play fast waltzes and some people play slow waltzes but we're gonna play a slow one

and it's called "Baby's In Black".]



Oh dear, what can I do?

Baby's in black and I'm feeling blue

Tell me, oh what can I do?



She thinks of him and so she dresses in black

And though he'll never come back, she's dressed in black

Oh dear, what can I do?

Baby's in black and I'm feeling blue

Tell me, oh what can I do?



I think of her, but she thinks only of him (Of him)

And though it's only a whim, she thinks of him

Oh how long will it take

Till she sees the mistake she has made?

Oh dear what can I do?

Baby's in black and I'm feeling blue

Tell me, oh what can I do?



Oh how long it will take

Till she sees the mistake she has made?

Dear what can I do?

Baby's in black and I'm feeling blue

Tell me, oh what can I do?



She thinks of him and so she dresses in black

And though he'll never come back, she's dressed in black

Oh dear what can I do?

Baby's in black and I'm feeling blue

Tell me, oh what can I do?

Glass Onion

told you about strawberry fields

You know the place where nothing is real

Well here's another place you can go

Where everything flows

Looking through the bent backed tulips

To see how the other half live

Looking through a glass onion



I told you about the walrus and me, man

You know that we're as close as can be, man

Well here's another clue for you all

The walrus was Paul

Standing on the cast iron shore, yeah

Lady Madonna trying to make ends meet, yeah

Looking through a glass onion



Oh yeah

Oh yeah

Oh yeah

Looking through a glass onion

Well here's another place you can be

Fixing a hole in the ocean

Trying to make a dove-tail joint, yeah

Looking through a glass onion

The Beatles Movie Medley

Roll up! Roll up for the magical mystery tour!

Step right this way!]



Roll up, roll up for the magical mystery tour

Roll up, roll up for the mystery tour

The magical mystery tour is waiting to take you away

Waiting to take you away, take you today



There's nothing you can do that can't be done

Nothing you can sing that can't be sung

Nothing you can say but you can learn how to play the game

It's easy



All you need is love

All you need is love

All you need is love, love

Love is all you need



Everywhere people stare

Each and every day

I can see them laugh at me

And I hear them say



Hey you've got to hide your love away

Hey you've got to hide your love away



Wo wo I never realised what a kiss could be

This could only happen to me

Can't you see?

Can't you see?



That when I tell you that I love you, oh

You're gonna say you love me too, oh

And when I ask you to be mine

You're gonna say you love me too



It's been a hard day's night, and I've been working like a dog

It's been a hard day's night, I should be sleeping like a log

But when I get home to you I find the things that you do

Will make me feel alright aw!



I think I'm gonna be sad

I think it's today, yeah

The girl that's driving me mad

Is going away



She's got a ticker to ride

She's got a ticker to ride

She's got a ticker to ride

And she don't care



Jojo was a man who thought he was a loner

But he knew it wouldn't last

Jojo left his home in Tucson, Arizona

For some California grass



Get back, get back

Get back to where you once belonged

Get back, get back

Get back to where you once belonged

Woo...



[Yeah!]

Lend Me Your Comb (Pop Goes The Beatles show on BBC)

end me your comb

It's time to go home

I got to go past

My hair is a mess



Your mammie will scold

Your pappie will shout

Unless we come in

The way we went out



Kissing you was fun honey

But thanks for the date

But I must come to run honey

But you know baby it's getting late



Just wait till I say

"My darling

Lend me your comb

We got to go home"



Whoa! Ow!



Kissing you was fun honey

But thanks for the date

But I must come to run, honey

But sugar, it's getting late



Just wait till I say

"My darling

Lend me your comb

We got to go home"

You Won't See Me

hen I call you up

Your line's engaged

I have had enough

So act your age

We have lost the time

That was so hard to find

And I will lose my mind

If you won't see me (You won't see me)

You won't see me (You won't see me)



I don't know why you (Ooh la la la)

Should want to hide (Ooh la la la)

But I can't get through (Ooh la la la)

My hands are tied (Ooh la la la)

I won't want to stay (Ooh la la la)

I don't have much to say (Ooh la la la)

But I can't turn away (Ooh la la la)

And you won't see me (You won't see me)

You won't see me (You won't see me)



Time after time

You refuse to even listen

I wouldn't mind

If I knew what I was missing



Though the days are few (Ooh la la la)

They're filled with tears (Ooh la la la)

And since I lost you (Ooh la la la)

It feels like years (Ooh la la la)

Yes, it seems so long (Ooh la la la)

Girl, since you've been gone (Ooh la la la)

And I just can't go on (Ooh la la la)

If you won't see me (You won't see me)

You won't see me (You won't see me)
